Central London Youth Development Trust was setup in 1996 by a
collection of young people. An organisation which is about initiating
projects for young people and managed by young people, including the
development of a wide voice for young people. It is about ensuring that
the activities developed will increase inspiration, motivation,
interest and responsibility in areas of interest to young people.
Activity is focussed on supporting young people in the often difficult
transition from childhood to adulthood. Our priorities mostly assert to
support those vulnerable young people who experience deprivation and
disadvantage and have barriers to participate in social and economical
activities.
We normally consult the young people those who are many ways left
out from the statutory service provisions and identified as hard to
reach group. Our target group is the minority ethnic children those who
are educationally, socially or economically disadvantaged in the
community.
